Festival of Trees and other fun activities

We had so much fun this year going The Festival of Trees :) They had Trees that company's decorated and then people bid on them for lots of $$ The highest bid this year was over 8,000 dollars.. Pretty crazy. They were so beautiful to look at.. They had a ton of crafts for the kids and Santa was there.. We had a fun morning going to that.. Plus our Ward Christmas party, The Messiah, and fun parties to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year :)

 Paysen with Santa Claus. He was ready to go and sit on his lap and knew when it was his turn. He loves Santa.. Even though we thought he might  be scared of this one he wasnt. He also loved his Candy cane after.

The Crafts he made at the Festival of Trees 

 His snowman cheese stick

 His Gingerbread house

 Paysen loved decorating and frosting his own cookie..

 After we went shopping and Paysen got some new snow boots..

 He kept dancing around in them

 I love how magical he makes this time of year

 Paysen went to Nursery at church a whole month before his was 18 months and has loved it. I seriously cannot believe that he is old enough for Nursery..

My girlfriends and I had a girls night to Starbucks and then to the Messiah that our stake put on. It was so much fun to be with them and enjoy time to ourselves.
